Daphne

Daphne was the Witch of Gluttony. Mentioned throughout the story, she formally debuted in Arc 4 as a supporting character. Contrary to popular belief, it was she, not Satella, who created the Demon Beasts. Following her death 400 years ago, Echidna brought her soul to Sanctuary. In Arc 4, she helped Subaru defeat the Oousagi by giving him valuable information and later to accept himself and change his views on Return by Death. After the arc, her soul was transferred into a crystal and she is currently travelling with Omega. Daphne had shoulder length ashen hair which she had tied in two tails. Her appearance was that of a 13 or 14 year old child. She was dressed in a pitch-black straitjacket which she wore over her white clothing, that were chained to her coffin. Both of her eyes were completely covered by a blindfold, wrapped to cross over the center of her face, which lended her appearance a much more witch-like aura, as opposed to other Witches of Sin. Despite her eerie and off-putting aura, she could be quite adorable at times. Daphne herself was chained to a black coffin that resembles the torture device iron maiden, which was most of the time standing vertically. Daphne named the coffin Centipede Coffin. On her command, the coffin's lower part would open up and reveal eight crab-like legs that would move itself and its host anywhere Daphne wished to go. She stated her coffin operated on her sweat, pee and other bodily wastes produced by her. Subaru described it as a living being, similar to crabs or spiders but more repulsive. The Coffin itself was actually a Demon Beast created by Daphne long ago, for the sole purpose of serving her as transport. As the Witch of Gluttony, Daphne's reason for living was to feel full, causing her to care about the amount more than taste and hunger. She was also stated to repeatedly vomiting out food and eat it again, although she seems to have indulged in such acts only when there was no more food left. If that option failed, she woild resort to eating objects she could chew, such as rugs, curtains, clothes, etc. In an effort to try and get rid of the never ending hunger, Daphne created the Demon Beasts but soon after lost control of them and accidentally released them into the world. Despite the threat the Demon Beasts present, they were created with a positive mindset - to save the world from hunger. Her view on hunger was bizarre and weird, stating that those who try to eat others should be wary of being eaten themselves, therefore she was unable to comprehend Subaru's counterarguments to her self-serving theory. Daphne's speech was described as incoherent and surreal. Talking with her eye to eye was practically impossible for anyone who wasn't suffering from extreme hunger, as she did not understand the basic human mindset and values. Her only goal was to save the world and herself from hunger, no matter the cost. Subaru described her mentality as animalistic and not something a person should possess. Her manner of speech was usually cheerful and childish, indicating her age. She also likes to give nicknames to people, such as Subarun to Subaru, Dna Dna to Echidna, Met Met to Sekhmet, Ner Ner to Minerva, Mila Mila to Carmilla, and Tyu Tyu to Typhon. She regarded Gluttony as the most important craving in life, stating a person is unable to live without eating. She rarely showed emotions or the will for basic human functions apart from indulging in her Gluttony. The author has stated that Daphne doesn't care about other people Following her death, Daphne accepted her demise and didn't care much about "dying again". Hence, she was perfectly willing to go against Echidna in her Castle of Dreams, even if it meant her one last destruction, most likely by Sekmet's hands.
